Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

The 22-unit, 4-story tenement building at 1684 West 2nd Street in Gravesend, owned by Pietro Fiorica and constructed in 1928, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in April 2024, there were complaints about heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building, though the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to conduct an inspection, resulting in the complaint being closed without resolution. The building has also faced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, receiving four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 specifically related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations. However, the most recent bedbug report filed in June 2025 for the period from November 2023 to October 2024 indicates no infested dwelling units, no units that required eradication, and no re-infested units, suggesting improvement in this area. The building's last documented rodent inspection in September 2014 resulted in a passing grade, though this is now quite dated. While the property has demonstrated some progress in pest management through its most recent bedbug report, the heat/hot water complaint in 2024 and historical pattern of bedbug reporting violations warrant attention to ongoing maintenance practices in the building.
